Ok - lots of us try to keep our addiction secret or a least toned down in front of our nearest and dearest so this is just a joke for how an untrained bloke can spot a TTC obessesive:
  • she always locks herself in the bathroom at the same time every day
  • she goes into the bathroom looking really excited but comes out in tears 4.5 minutes later
  • she knows the local pharmacists on a first name basis
  • there is a strange collection of thin strips of cardboard in her underwear drawer
  • there are a lot of unidentified ebay/paypal entries on the bank statements
  • the bathroom bin is always empty. (no evidence left behind in obvious places)
  • a small plastic container lives in your bathroom which serves no apparent purpose
  • she sets the alarm for the same goddamn early hour even on a sunday, but never gets up when it goes off
  • she forces you to have sex for 3 days running, even though you're tired, for no apparent reason - she's not even drunk!
  • several unmarked parcels have arrived in the post only to be whisked off and never mentioned again
  • she keeps asking you randomly to convert farenheit to celcius
  • the fridge is full of grapefruit juice
  • she keeps asking you to rate how wet she is on a scale of 1-5
  • she punches you in the face when you suggest that she is upset when her period arrives because she is "hormonal"

good luck to all my fellow TTC OBsessives - at least with BnB we know we are not alone!! to all who need it! x

Goodness, I just read that out loud to OH and he said "oh about those parcels..." and I cut him off and yelled "the damn cat is on the table again, you best get him off!" and then put my headphones back on.

Should probably also mention starting to use the search on the computer but as soon as you start typing the recent searches come up with things like CM and HPT...his face is priceless.
